PT Cruiser Forum

I have an 06 PT Turbo Lite, Cindy found me a Stage One. I went to the dealership which I trust and ask the tech if he had done the tranny re-learn before and he said yes. I replaced the original with The Stage One and then he hooked up the DRB III to the OBD. He did some things????? with the engine off, then started it up and did a couple of shifts.When he got done the engine light is on, the speedometer doesn't work, the outside temp says 104 and the door locks don't go down after taking off. It threw a code of U1120 Lost Wheel Distance Message. I don't have anti-lock brakes. The question is could he have done something to mess it up or can a computer (Stage One) that is programmed with anti-lock brakes be reprogrammed to not have anti-lock brakes. I know the VIN was done right because from what I have read it wouldn't even run if it wasn't. To me it didn't seem to have any more power and after what I have read everyone is saying there is a big difference. I put the original back in. Any help is appreciated, I am disappointed with the situation to say the least.

The problem is it could be the PCM or just as easily be the installation process. If I were you I would contact Cindy right away and get her take on it. She's good people and has almost certainly dealt with this situation before. She'll be able to guide you from here.

Yes Barbie, you can very easily do the relearn yourself and it's a lot more fun than standing there watching a tech install it. You just have to find an area to "safely" do it.
